Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

The symptoms you have described needs to be investigated both by an ophthalmologist and a neurologist along with a physician. There could be very many causes for all these symptoms specially in this age group which can not be ignored. Therefore, I would suggest you to contact your treating doctor, and inform him about your present symptoms.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
